However, there has been less work dealing with ethical issues involved withengineering service learning. While there are ethical issues related to any engineering project,this paper concentrates on ethical issues inherent in the international

Our objective is to create an exemplar process thatencourages engineering faculty members to contribute to, and develop ownership of, theethics curriculum. Literature in engineering education research has called attention to faculty buy-inas one of the key indicators of successful educational innovation.

This paperattempts to bridge this gap by presenting a basic yet comprehensive project that can be used todemonstrate amplitude modulation and demodulation theory. It is specifically designed to stir theinterest of junior or senior level electronics minded electrical engineering students. In thisproject, a double sideband large carrier waveform is produced using a simple switchingmodulator circuit. The resulting amplitude modulation (AM) waveform is then demodulatedusing an envelope detector circuit. The proposed project requests that students perform a circuitsimulation as well as an actual circuit implementation. The circuit behavior is studied via bothanalysis using software tools and

Tothis end we have created reflection questions, lectures, workshops, and an assessment instrument.

Whatwould happen if these students explored the ethical issues surrounding their design topic? Wouldtheir understanding and application of ethics improve? Would their ability to analyze ethical casestudies improve? Traditionally, students first learn about engineering ethics and ethical decisionmaking and then apply these concepts in analyzing typical introductory engineering ethics casestudies.At Michigan Technological University, the effect of integrating engineering ethics into thesemester-long design project was explored in four sections of a first-year engineering course.Within the four sections
